RHIANNON can’t wait to get into the swing of things, and wants everyone to join her.
Melba Support Services is holding a charity golf and dinner event on Friday 15 November at Yering Meadow’s Golf Course.
It’s the disability services provider fundraising event for the year and is gearing up to be a fabulous day.
Football great Kevin Sheedy is guest speaker and will talk about the intrinsic link between business, sport and community and Melba’s ambassador and football coach Brett Ratten will be there throughout the day to chat with guests.
Melba is located in Mt Evelyn and supports more than 150 adults with disabilities across the eastern suburbs to live everyday lives.
Last year Melba was the first organisation in Australia to be accredited by the Council on Quality and Leadership, USA, in person-centred planning and this year it was recognised as the Yarra Ranges Community Group of the Year.
Its Charity Golf Day and dinner aims to raise money to help Melba continue to provide the high quality, individualised service that it is renowned for and, more specifically, to support its Accommodation Choice initiative, they will provide people with disabilities with more choice around where, with whom and with how many people they live.
